When I hit git commit, I get the message, “hint: Waiting for your editor to close the file… 2020-12-12 17:44:05.952 BBEdit[11185:597263] .sdef warning for type ‘text’ attribute ‘name’ of class ‘application’ in suite ‘BBEdit Suite’: AppleScript name references may not work for this property because its type is not NSString-derived.” repeats for ‘document’, ‘filter’, ‘project item’, ‘window’, and ‘tag info’. Is there something I can do to BBEdit, or should I change to ‘Text Edit’, or something else?
I sent this query also to support@barebones.com and overnight got the answer from Rich Siegel himself:
Thanks for writing in.
To use BBEdit as a help for git commit
, please use the “Install Command Line Tools” command on BBEdit’s application menu, and then proceed as indicated.
Then, editor your Git configuration to use the command “bbedit -w” rather than whatever you’re using now.
I hope this helps, but please let us know if you have any questions as you proceed.
